Over the past two days, Chu Feng and Sima Ying had been visiting numerous locations throughout the Alliance of Spirit World Masters in search of items tainted with Han Helai's aura, and many people had spotted the two of them.
Though none of those people knew that Chu Feng and Sima Ying's wanderings served a serious purpose, their intimate behavior together had drawn countless envious looks from the men and peculiar stares from the women.
They couldn't understand why a heavenly chosen girl like Sima Ying would be so close to an outsider like Chu Feng.
Even some of the women who normally envied Sima Ying felt that Chu Feng was a toad lusting after a swan — completely unworthy of her.
After all, Sima Ying not only had Miao Renlong's protection, but she was also the youngest genius within the Alliance of Spirit World Masters.
Many believed that by the time Sima Ying reached Lin Yezhou's age, her achievements would far surpass his, and she would inevitably become the Alliance's greatest genius — its foremost disciple.
With a powerful backer behind her, such extraordinary talent, and a beautiful, otherworldly appearance, Sima Ying was the universally acknowledged heavenly chosen girl of the Alliance of Spirit World Masters.
Yet such a universally recognized prodigy was walking around with an outsider who was only a sixth-stage Martial King. To many, this was proof that Sima Ying's judgment was deeply flawed.
They couldn't wrap their heads around it. So many outstanding men within the Alliance admired Sima Ying — those who openly pursued her or harbored secret crushes were simply too many to count.
Even Lin Yezhou, the Alliance's foremost genius, showed Sima Ying extraordinary care and attention, yet she had never been moved. She always kept her distance from Lin Yezhou.
This only went to show how aloof, how noble, how high above others, and how untouchably sacred Sima Ying truly was.
Sure, Sima Ying had a domineering temperament that could be off-putting at times. Many people feared her and envied her.
But when it came to matters of the heart between men and women, she was truly like a saintess — not a single man could catch her eye, not a single man could enter her heart.
And yet now, Sima Ying was this close to Chu Feng. She even frequently made intimate gestures toward him in public that she had never made with anyone else. If this wasn't a problem with her judgment, then what was it?
Could it really be that Chu Feng possessed some unique charm? Or that he was hiding extraordinary depths, which had attracted Sima Ying?
No. Impossible. Absolutely impossible!!!
At the very least, within the entire Alliance of Spirit World Masters, practically no one besides Sima Ying and Grandpa Miao believed that Chu Feng was hiding anything remarkable.
In their eyes, Chu Feng was nothing but a toad — a toad lusting after a swan.
In their eyes, Chu Feng was nothing but trash — trash from the Greenwood Mountain.
Sima Ying had simply been blind to get so close to him.
And they — these juniors of the Alliance of Spirit World Masters — what they wanted to do most right now was to rescue their heavenly chosen girl. They had to make Sima Ying realize just how worthless Chu Feng truly was.
Only then could they drive Chu Feng away from Sima Ying.
